Best advice for removing the rear:
Tie down the wheel to something unmovable (I used a ratcheting tie down attached to the base of my Pitbull stand). And then crank away with a breaker bar. Easy one-man operation and you don't have to fk with an impact wrench (my impact wrench didn't do squat).

...so funny how "genius minds" do things differently

an impact wrench saved me from the tie-down step - just 2 or 3 hits on the trigger spins the rear nut off right away....i use an air powered one, but i hear others praise the battery ones as well.....

Are you using the rear brake to hold the rear wheel? I have a cheap harbor frieght impact and it takes a bit of impact before coming loose. I also only torque the nut down to about 160 ft/lbs. My bike is race only as well. My next recommendation would be to heat up the nut the best you can...then try again. If that does not work, there may be something else going on. Is this the 1st time you have tried to remove it? These just ideas based on my experience. I am not saying they are the best, only that this is what works for me. Hope this helps and good luck!

yep, just like the video. I have an air impact wrench rated to 800lb/ft. For about 3-4 seconds, it's just hammering and it looks like nothing is moving. Then....it starts to go. Just hold it on there and keep the trigger pulled - it'll come off
